Шаблон:Infobox comics creator Doug Allen (born February 22, 1956)[1] is an American underground cartoonist, illustrator, and musician. Best known for his long-running comic strip Steven, Allen has over the years collaborated with long-time friend Gary Leib on music, animation, fine art, and comics, including the two-man Fantagraphics anthology Idiotland.
Work
After attending Brown University for a time,[2] Allen graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) 1978 with an illustration degree.[3] He met Gary Leib at RISD.
In addition to the weekly feature Steven, which ran in college and alternative newspapers from 1977 to 1994,[2] Allen's comics, gag cartoons, and illustrations have appeared in The New Yorker, BLAB!, Zero Zero, Weirdo, Pictopia, and Duplex Planet Illustrated. In addition to Idiotland, Allen and Leib collaborated on a number of stories in the fund-raising anthology comic Legal Action Comics volume 1, published in 2001.
Allen's non-comics work includes Plexiglas paintings based on pinball machine art, most of which he produced in the late 1970s; and a more recent series of "fake" marine art paintings, which he sells on his website.
Along with Leib, Allen was a founding member of the Grammy-nominated band Rubber Rodeo from 1978 to 1982. Allen has played bass for many other bands as well.[3]
Allen and his wife and two children live in Rockland County, New York.[3]
